2. Thomas Blood 1814 Field Staffordshire and John Blood 1817 do, ag labs in 1851

c. Thomas Blood m Sarah, had 7 children 1811-1824
d. Samuel Blood 1802 m Martha
e. John Blood m Mary, had 5 children 1831-39 in Hampton in Arden, Warwick
4. John Blood (m Sarah) and Joseph Blood (m 1806 Elizabeth Dent) of Solihull Warwick. Is John the father of William, who had 10 children in Tipton Staffs?
Most of the others are servant girls and stray widows, who are notoriously difficult to trace.
